Graham's Home Run

On Easter Sunday we attended Graham's first ever baseball game. By some stroke of unbelievable luck Graham's Great Uncle Eric managed to score us the dugout suite at the Diamondback's Chase Stadium in Phoenix. For those who are unfamiliar with Chase Field, the Diamondbacks found they had a larger than necessary dugout and split it in half, making half of it a super luxury suite for folks to rent. We were field-side- close enough to converse with players. One of whom- Felipe Lopez (Diamondbacks shortstop)- gave Graham a game ball. How do you top it? We don't know. The family all together, a location not to be beat, and a story to tell Graham when he gets older. It was the experience of a lifetime.

Holy crap- Destiny I wish you had been there with us. It was unbelievable- Ethan...and Eric for that matter would have wet their pants with excitement. At one point Manny Ramirez was up to bat and the bat broke in half when he made contact- it came flying and hit the fence in front of our box and we got to touch it!!! I loved the Easter pics of your kids, BTW- they're awesome.
